FromSoftware games are renowned for their difficulty, with streamer Kai Cenat dying over a thousand times just to complete Elden Ring. This makes the achievements of players who take on additional challenges even more impressive. Enter Dinossindgeil, who has etched his name in gaming history by becoming the first person to conquer the God Run 3 SL1 challenge. This daunting feat required him to complete seven FromSoftware games consecutively without leveling up or taking a single hit, a challenge that took nearly two years to accomplish.
The God Run 3 SL1 is considered the most challenging endeavor in the FromSoftware community. The rules are strict: seven games back-to-back, no leveling up, and no damage taken. A single hit means starting the entire run over, no matter the progress made. When Dinossindgeil finally defeated the Soul of Cinder in Dark Souls III, the final boss of his run, the emotional weight of his achievement overwhelmed him, and he broke down in tears.
The journey was fraught with obstacles. In the summer of 2024, a run ended prematurely due to a bug in Dark Souls II, where an arrow inexplicably clipped through a wall. By that point, Dinossindgeil had already triumphed over Elden Ring and Dark Souls I, only to have to start anew.
It remains to be seen how FromSoftware will respond to this monumental achievement. What is undeniable is that Dinossindgeil has secured his place in gaming history with this incredible feat.
